Taking things a step further - it would not be at all difficult to allow
other programs to send K3 commands to / from the K3 through another program.
This program (server) controls the serial comms and supports an unlimited
number of clients. The clients speak to the radio using the radio's native
protocol through the server.
It's a simple concept, the programming is not too difficult except when
talking with some of the older Yaesu radios. Supporting the K3 / Kenwood /
ICOM like this would be simple.
As for things like split mode - as far as I can remember no ICOM radio
supports this via CAT commands, not even the $10k+ IC-7800 :-(

No, every program needs to know the radio status at all times.
If one program changes a setting that a second program relies
on without notification, nasty things can happen.
